Wanderback is a hybrid independent bottler/distillery. The brand collaborates with distillers directly prior to distillation rather than post-distillation to achieve their desired result. For Batch No. 2, Seattle's Westland Distillery double pot distilled a mix of four types of malted barley: Washington Select Pale Malt, Pale Chocolate Malt, Munich Malt, and Crystal Malt.

Tasting Notes

"The second batch of Wanderback turns everything up from the first: higher proof, more time in barrel, and finishing in ex-rum and ex-bourbon barrels. The result is a richer and rounder whiskey with notes of brown sugar, vanilla, and creme brulee. It's got a pleasant kick and a finish that lingers with a hint of dark tobacco."
